Chapter 17 Mamiya Mitsuru: This is too hard for me...
One minute, five minutes, ten minutes...
Chi Feichi sat quietly by the bed, reading a book, without saying a word.
Hissashi climbed down midway, went to the shelf to check the Hamster in the Plastic Box, counted them, none were missing, and contentedly wandered around the Room.
Kuroba Kaito sat at the table. He had calmed down. He had originally wanted to leave immediately, but then he remembered that he had promised to teach Chi Feichi the Disguise Technique...
I, Kaito Kid, keep my word!
He looked up and saw a Snake scurrying around the Room, seemingly going through every nook and cranny. His eyelid twitched.
Or should he reconsider leaving?
Twenty minutes, thirty minutes...
The Room was still quiet.
Kuroba Kaito watched Hissashi frolicking in the Room for a while, then took out his Mobile Phone and played with it for a while. He looked up and found that Chi Feichi was still reading a Book.
Let's see who is more patient?
He won't lose!
Forty minutes, fifty minutes, an hour...
The Room was still silent.
Kuroba Kaito took a deep breath, moved his gaze away from his Mobile Phone, okay, he lost. The other person hadn't even moved, "Don't you find this boring?"
"Weren't you the one who wanted quiet?" Chi Feichi retorted without looking up.
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
Suddenly, he didn't want to talk to this guy!
The Room became quiet again for three minutes.
Kuroba Kaito slumped in his chair, making conversation, "You've read the Notebook left by my father. When you learn his Disguise Technique, you'll be considered his disciple, right?"
"Not 'considered'," Chi Feichi finished reading the last page of the content and closed the Book, "If you think so, then it is."
Kuroba Kaito sat up straight. He felt like he had found a disciple for his old man, and suddenly felt closer to Chi Feichi. He lowered his voice and asked, "Don't you think this Family is strange?"
"How so?" Chi Feichi looked at Kuroba Kaito.
"You said not to look for a Doctor, and they really didn't look for a Doctor!" Kuroba Kaito felt a bit resentful. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Of course, I'm not maliciously guessing because of this, but from this point of view, their attitude is a bit indifferent, as if they don't really welcome us... No, it's not that they don't welcome us. After dinner, Mr. Mamiya Mitsuru mentioned the Chess Sculpture in the Courtyard, seemingly with anticipation. Do you think it's possible that they actually don't want anyone to come here, but they hope we can solve the puzzle, so they agreed to let us stay here?"
Chi Feichi nodded, "You guessed right."
"Do you know something?" Kuroba Kaito asked.
"It's just a feeling," Chi Feichi said, "And I feel like we might not be staying for long."
Kuroba Kaito stroked his chin, "That's right. If we can't solve the puzzle, they'll probably think we're useless, right? It's not impossible for them to find a reason to make us leave..."
Chi Feichi: "..."
No, the root cause is that after a while, a Death God Elementary School Student will come and cause trouble...
"But I really want to challenge it," Kuroba Kaito looked at the window, "What treasure is hidden in that puzzle?"
"It's better not to challenge it," Chi Feichi got up, went to get the Hot Water Kettle, and poured a cup of Water for himself and Kuroba Kaito, "It's rare for me to have a quiet place to study, and I also need to train in the Forest. The Forest is the best training ground. If you find the treasure, trouble will come. At least wait until I've learned enough before looking for it."
Kuroba Kaito considered it, "Waiting is fine too. Anyway, the treasure won't run away, we can look for it anytime. What are you going to train in the Forest?"
Chi Feichi pointed to the Weights he had brought in the corner, "Physical training. In the next few days, I plan to learn Disguise Technique in the morning, read psychology Books, then go to the Forest for training, or rest in the afternoon, and go for night training in the evening."
Superpowers and stuff can be put aside for now. First, I need to build a good physical foundation. I don't lack combat skills or practical experience, but I need to quickly improve my physical fitness.
"You have a training plan?" Kuroba Kaito became interested, "Count me in!"
Since someone was willing to train with him, Chi Feichi naturally had no reason to refuse.
That night, Chi Feichi tied on the Weights and moved around in the Castle to get used to them. He didn't plan to take off the Weights on his hands and feet at night. Unless there was an emergency, the Weights would probably be on for a while.
Fortunately, the Weights he bought were of good quality, not bulky, with reasonable weight distribution, and could be hidden under long sleeves and trousers.
Kuroba Kaito also tied on Weights with great interest, and followed Chi Feichi around the Castle.
The next day, when Kuroba Kaito woke up, he found that Chi Feichi had already returned from his morning exercise, had breakfast with the Mamiya Family, and was running to Chi Feichi's Room with his Backpack.
"Going out for morning exercise so early, you're too hardworking, aren't you?" As soon as he entered the Room, Kuroba Kaito skillfully dragged a chair and sat down, taking out Disguise Tools from his Backpack.
"It's not high-intensity training. I went out for a jog and did two sets of Boxing." Chi Feichi also pulled up a chair and sat down.
"You've been wearing Weights all the time?" Kuroba Kaito looked up and saw Chi Feichi nod, then continued to take things out of his bag speechlessly, "I also tried wearing them last night. As a result, when I woke up groggy in the morning, I found that I couldn't move my hands and feet. I thought I was having sleep paralysis..."
Chi Feichi reminded him, "Your body is still growing, and I don't recommend you wear Weights for a long time."
Kuroba Kaito smiled, "I know, I was just curious and wanted to try it."
Learning Disguise Technique for one hour every morning, this was the plan that Chi Feichi had made.
At first, Kuroba Kaito thought the plan was inappropriate. According to this arrangement, when would he ever learn it?
But once he actually started learning, Kuroba Kaito found that one hour a day was more than enough.
After Chi Feichi carefully read through the Notes left by Kuroba Toichi, he remembered almost all the content. It wasn't photographic memory, but he slowed down when reading and was focused enough.
And he himself also had experience in Disguise and makeup, and his ability to recognize and analyze faces was also strong enough.
The rest was just learning about the materials for Disguise, how to use materials to change the visual appearance of facial bones, and how to use materials to make Fake Face...
He mastered it in five days, and then started learning Magic Trick of quick costume change from Kuroba Kaito.
And every day starting from around nine in the morning, Chi Feichi would go out with his homemade Nutritious Lunch and not return until dinner time in the evening.
After Kuroba Kaito followed him out on the first day and tasted the Nutritious Lunch and Chi Feichi's Grilled Skewers, he decisively followed him out every day.
Except for the first day when he trained with Chi Feichi and was half-dead, he became smarter in the following days. He would train for a while, then tease Hissashi on the side, watching Chi Feichi climb trees with Weights, sprint with Weights, practice Boxing with Weights, swim with Weights, jump around in trees with Weights, free climb with Weights, and do night cross-country with Weights...
While watching in fear and trepidation, he didn't forget to harass Hissashi who was hunting.
"Hissashi, I feel like your master is going further and further down the path of self-destruction. Do you think I should buy him insurance? And fill in my name as the beneficiary..."
Compared to the fulfilling lives of these two, Mamiya Mitsuru felt a headache.
Aoyama Fourth Hospital would occasionally call to ask about Chi Feichi's Situation, but Chi Feichi ran out every day, and when he came back, he only ate and slept. What Situation could he know?
He couldn't stop him, and facing the other person's cold gaze, he didn't dare to say much. He was really desperate.
He originally wanted to ask Chi Feichi to look at the Chess puzzle in the Courtyard, but the other person wasn't interested at all, and kept running out as usual.
That high school student was also not worry-free. He became addicted to teasing Snakes. He had only been here for seven days and had been bitten by Snakes four times, and each time he continued to tease them tirelessly...
One day, the weather was fine and sunny.
Mamiya Mitsuru received another Phone Call from Aoyama Fourth Hospital. Fortunately, Chi Feichi didn't run out today, so he wasn't too guilty about bluffing the other party. But when he went out to bask in the sun and just arrived at the Courtyard, his good mood instantly disappeared...
Mamiya Takato was squatting in front of the Chess Sculpture, staring at it intently and thoughtfully, occasionally reaching out to touch it.
Chi Feichi used the Chess as Plum Blossom Poles, stepping on them and jumping around.
On one side, Kuroba Kaito was dangling a Hamster by its tail in front of Hissashi. When Hissashi pounced, a Magic trick made the Hamster disappear, and then he was chased and bitten by Hissashi, running wildly around the Chess like the wind.
Mamiya Masuyo was circling the Courtyard in her Wheelchair, basking in the sun, occasionally asking, 'Has my daughter arrived yet?', 'Who are they?', and occasionally roaring in a rage, "You brats, don't break the things left by the old master! Has my daughter arrived yet? I want her to drive these brats out! Drive them out!"
The entire Courtyard was a scene of chaos, lively and extraordinary!
Mamiya Mitsuru watched blankly, feeling that he could hang a sign at the Entrance, just writing 'Aoyama Fifth Hospital'...
As days passed, he was really afraid that even if he adapted to this life, he would become abnormal himself, and he could only remind himself again and again: 'I am a normal person, I am a normal person...'
Living with such a group of people, it was too hard for him!
"Ah!"
In the Courtyard, Kuroba Kaito, who had been bitten on the ankle by Hissashi, screamed, "Let go, hurry up, someone's going to die!"
Then, when Hissashi let go, he ran into the Villa like the wind, and then ran out like the wind again.
"Uncle Mamiya, excuse me, excuse me!"
"Uncle Mamiya, I'm sorry, it seems the Antivenom is used up. Could you please drive to buy a few?"
Over there, Chi Feichi turned his head, glanced with eyes as cold and calm as the Snake staring here, then turned back and continued to do his own thing without saying a word.
Mamiya Takato didn't even lift his head, staring intently at the Chess Sculpture in thought.
Mamiya Masuyo wheeled over in her Wheelchair, "Go buy it for this brat! And pick up my daughter on the way, she's so slow..."
"Okay, no problem!" Mamiya Mitsuru tried hard to maintain a polite smile, and amidst Kuroba Kaito's thanks and Mamiya Masuyo's incessant instructions, he silently drove out.
If... if it weren't for the treasure hidden in the Castle... he really wanted to leave this mess and quit!
I really want to leave. Thinking carefully, compared to being driven crazy, that little treasure... no, no, the treasure is still very important...
